It was 2018, I just turned nineteen and I am off my way to go to college. Due to the lack of funding I couldn't go on my eighteenth birth day I was supposed to go to Florida to study gaming and movie animation.
"Well mom i'm off to winter park" I said.
"Please be careful I don't want you to get hurt, please call me when you get there."
"I will mom," I replied, "Don't worry i'll be fine."
I’m on my way now to Florida, it took about three days but I manage to make it with my pre packed food supplies, mostly ham sandwiches and cokes. I was tired Iskiped the tour till the net day I got my apartment key and unpacked.
"Hey there!" said friendly voice.
"Yea you, whats your name ?" he asked. "My name is Chris whats yours ?" I replied with an awkward tone I never noticed before.
"My name is Andrew, Andy for short."
"Well it’s nice to meet a friendly face." I looked at him with one of my famous smirks.
"Do you go to Sailing Arts U ?" he asked with glee.
"Actually I didn't want to go today because I felt a bit tired, so I just came to get key to my apartment."
"Do you need help unloading ?" he offered.
"Yes I would appreciate that thank you."
We manage to get every thing unloaded before the night life emerged. Basicly, when all the frat party begin. I wasn't a party goer my self but I managed to go now and then. when I went inside my new, small, temporary home, I unpacked the basics.
"Ahh much better." I sighed with relief.
I just unpacked all my electronics stuff, tv, xbox, my laptop, and lighting fixtures, the list goes on. When I sat down on my couch, I turned on the tv and watch my little pony: friendship is magic. Secretly I kept this from friends and family because of fear of disrespect.
I was a " Closet Broney" as it were I always felt that I could live and fit in there, Ponyville just felt... peaceful, so peaceful. Over the next few days Andy showed me around the collage and the city. For a city it was pretty small but all nice people. We were walking past an old antique shop but it wasn't for the old world war II items or the 1960 hippie outfit, which I don't know why they would sell that, but an old cobalt blue box that some what looked like the box that contained the elements of harmony when the mane 6 defeated nightmare moon.
I went into the shop and asked "Is any one here the sign said you were open."
I walked to the front desk and there was a note the said, "To who read this, I’m out of the shop , if you would like to buy something please leave a note and exact price, thank you..."
So i looked at the price on the box, the price it was one-hundred-ninety nine dollars.
"I cant afford that... well not right now at least." I thought about it for a minute.
"Well my next paycheck was about $450, so i think i can rain check it."
So I decided to wrote a note that said, "Dear shop owner I am a customer that walked in while ago by the time you get here I will be gone ...".
I was writing the note when suddenly I heard an old woman's voice. "Well hello my dear, what can i help you with?".
I stuttered a bit "W-well i was interested in that box over there i was wondering if...".
"OH THAT THING," she shouted "You can have that no charge!".
I asked "Why are you giving this to me for free?".
She explained that every customer that bought that box could not open the dam thing.
"Well did it used to have a key?" I wondered.
"No it did not it just came with a note that I can't read it." so she shoved me out of the store and made a make shift sign that said "NO RETURNS" so I decided to walk home with the mysterious box.
Later on that day after all my animation classes, I went home and just looked at the note and the cobalt blue box with the mysterious emblems that looked like the elements of harmony. I studied that note for hours now it look like it was written in equestrian. I looked up the alphabet for their language it took me about two weeks to study the entire alphabet. Afterwards I looked at the note and started decoding it. After about thirty minutes I finally decoded the note and it said:
"To whom reads this letter, this box contains a portal to another dimension but in order to open this world you must know all the names of these emblems, they are your key to open the new dimension... but be warned, you will be stuck in this world for seven days to decided if you would like to stay in this universe or leave and the box will be destroyed and you as the opener will lose all memory of the events of the new world."
I thought of this for a few hours and i decided to open the box during my winter break which was not that far away.
The next thing I thought is "Is it really the my little pony world or just a world that was unintended to be created and just used the same language as Equestria ? And if it is Equestria, will I leave my own world to live in a world where most of the time is care free ?”
It is December 1st 2018, it was the beginning of the unknown journey to the new realm. So like the note said you must name all the elements shown. It was a little difficult since I haven't watch it for a while now due to a new season coming out and Christmas specials. so I went into my room which was surprisingly sound proof, and I said all the elements,
“Honesty, Generosity, Loyalty, Kindness, Laughter and MAGIC!" suddenly my room started shaking and I fell down then as if timed stop so I can be back on the same time, date and year but I wasn't sure.
But when I looked at the small box, it suddenly transformed into a giant doorway to the other side. I took a deep breath and hoped I would meet all the little ponies.
"Here goes nothing." I said to my self with a nervous smile like if it was an actual event.
I had my backpack filled with my iPod for entertainment, some notebooks, pens and my lucky pair of sunglasses. I steeped through the portal and just seen whiteness for a few moments then I was in a forest.
